"While neither Craig Camp, general manager at Applegate Valley’s Troon Vineyard & Farm, nor Mimi Casteel, owner and winegrower at Hope Well Wine in Sheridan, received the award, their nominations highlight something significant: the wine world is taking notice of Oregon’s deep commitment to sustainable winegrowing."

New Oregon Wine Press Cover Story "Camp is the driving force behind Troon’s dramatic shift from conventional farming to what is currently the world’s only Demeter Biodynamic and Regenerative Organic Certified Gold winery." https://www.oregonwinepress.com/article?articleTitle=rooted-in-responsibility--1775062900--3980--
Like all gamblers, our mission is to improve our odds against the house. As a Biodynamic winery, we strive to work in harmony with nature rather than against it. Industrial chemical farming cheats to beat the house. That’s a good way to end up, in Godfather speak, sleeping with the fishes https://craigcamp.com/journal/2026/3/15/winegrowing-in-oregons-applegate-valley-a-conversation-with-master-viticulturist-jason-cole
None of these opportunities tempts me to risk my money, as my job involves gambling. I’m not a dealer or a croupier—I work in agriculture. In farming, like in casinos, the house, or, in our case, Mother Nature always wins. https://craigcamp.com/journal/2026/3/15/winegrowing-in-oregons-applegate-valley-a-conversation-with-master-viticulturist-jason-cole
